Brigit Quinn has always felt like an outsider. Growing up in a small town where her mom's pagan practices are the stuff of local gossip, she's spent her whole life trying to be normal. On her 15th birthday, Brigit makes the same wish she always has-to just fit in. But the universe has other plans.
Instead, Brigit discovers she's descended from a legendary Celtic tribe-guardians of Ireland's mystical stone circles. A spellbound book reveals her astonishing family history and the incredible abilities of her ancestors-powers she'll inherit if she chooses to embrace them.
When an ancient evil resurfaces, threatening her family's legacy, Brigit is forced to quickly make this impossible decision. Will she accept her magical heritage and fight to protect it? Or reject it to live the "normal" life she's always wanted?
This thrilling mix of magic, self-discovery, and Irish mythology will captivate fans of coming-of-age stories with a mystical twist. Lovers of ancient legends, enchanted stone circles, and family secrets will be drawn to Brigit's journey into a world where her true power could be her greatest strength... or her downfall.
